    Completely amazing, talented and very personable.

    Without a doubt one of the best photographers I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with.
    Ashley’s creativity and talent captured some of the best moments of our life and our greatest memories, frozen in time but with all of the love, life & emotions shining through.
    She was even able to wrangle our 3 less than well behaved dogs for some amazing pictures.
    As time goes on and some of the finer details of our wedding day fades from memory, I find joy & comfort in knowing we will always have these amazing pictures. Even now I find myself looking through them, remembering things I had already forgotten.
    I can never thank her enough for all the personal care she put into her work.

    Amazing and professional photographs and an easy-going personality to match. Ashley James has provided my Real Estate Company Colony and Craft with beautiful pictures of homes and their surrounding areas/neighborhoods. Ashley has an eye for beauty, and it comes through in all her photographs. . .she's also incredibly easy to work with and pleasant.

    Ashley was absolutely incredible to work with and would highly recommend her to any future brides! I got married during the crazy hurricane weekend, and although the weather was a disaster, Ashley made sure everyone was calm and comfortable throughout the entire day. Having her there made me stress a lot less :) I used her for my bridal portraits and my wedding, and have zero regrets! All of the photos came out beautifully and couldn't be happier!

    I used Ashley for my engagement and bridal shoot as well as my wedding and I could not have been more pleased with her work. She is absolutely amazing at what she does and has a great laid back personality to go with it. You will not be disappointed with choosing Ashley for your wedding.

    We asked Ashley to come and take pictures of the two of us with our dogs as they are getting older and wanted a family portrait. Ashley is an excellent photographer! She knew exactly how to make us and the dogs feel at ease as well as ability to capture us all in great poses without us knowing. We highly recommend Ashley, you will not be dissapointed with her work and professionalism!

    Ashley was wonderful to work with! My now-husband and I eloped on a Monday. Ashley came to us for pictures and was patient when I wanted to get pictures with and of my dog. She didn't mind a little slobber and made sure to get the perfect pictures with the right lighting. I would highly recommend her for wedding, family pictures, or pet photography!

    I've used Ashley for multiple shoots including a family shoot, couples shoot, pet shoot & Christmas shoot. She continually impresses me with her creativity, eye for the shot, flexibility and demeanor. She always makes everyone (even the dogs!) feel so comfortable. My photos are always exactly what I had envisioned and the turn around time is great. I would highly recommend her for any of your photography needs.

    Low Country Focus did an outstanding job of capturing each and every intimate and important detail of our wedding. Ashley Blackburn made it a priority to really listen to our ideas and was able to achieve a very impressive photo-journalistic collection of memories from our day. Her charismatic and humorous demeanor made each of my experiences (bridal portrait and wedding) very relaxed and enjoyable. In comparison to other photographers I have seen at previous weddings, Ashley remained unobtrusive throughout our day, allowing us to simply be ourselves as she photographed us throughout our wedding day bliss. My family and I could not happier with our experience and photos and we most highly recommend her services.

    Finding a photographer that we in our price range really had me worried. I loved the idea of having a photographer present for the whole ceremony and reception, but knew I couldn't pay the amount that I was seeing for all of the photographers available in the Hilton Head area. Even though Ashley is out of Charleston, she came down to the wedding location for no additional charge. We got the largest package, which included engagement portraits. Ashley made us feel so comfortable while taking pictures--the whole engagement posing thing was awkward at first for us, but she had a great eye and told us where to stand and what to do, and she got us to loosen up and it turned out great! I also liked that I felt comfortable during the wedding, telling her exactly what I wanted--some family was trying to suggest that we take alot more pictures that my husband and I wanted (I wanted to get to the eating and drinking already!), and Ashley stuck to doing exactly what we wanted. The best part though, is the candid pictures that she got--it's like the pictures friends always take, capturing the moment, except they actually looked good. They looked like the candid dancing pictures you see in wedding magazines, but we knew the great memories going along with them. So many of them, I could remember the song that was playing when the picture was taken. The photographer is one of the things we were thinking about skimpping on, and now that the wedding's over, those photographs are the thing that we continue to look at every week, and laugh and smile at all of the fun we had! I'm so happy that we found Ashley!

    Ashley is a wonderful photographer and a pleasure to work with! I had a blast taking my bridal portraits and she even made me feel comfortable walking around downtown Charleston in my wedding dress! We could not have been more pleased with the results and she was able to take photos that both my mom and I were happy with. For the day of the wedding, she was there ahead of time and did not miss a single moment of the ceremony or the reception. I am so glad that we hired her to capture one of the most memorable days of my life :)

    We cannot put into words how happy we were with Lowcountry Focus Photography.
    Ashley was extremely easy to work with and made everyone comfortable. Our friends and family have had nothing but great things to say about Ashley’s professionalism and the end product. She listened, she was energetic, she tuned into our vision, she was organized, and she was creative. Everything ran so smoothly and Ashley gave us a wide range of views and really caught the emotions and small things we loved about our day. We would absolutely recommend Lowcountry Focus Photography to any bride and groom. Thank you so very much to Ashley for making our day so special and for giving us wonderful photos to remember our wedding by. We will always be grateful.

    Many thanks, Alyce and Kelly Chang
